NEWS -- NOTIZIE -- NOUVELLES -- SIEMPRE ALGO MAS

Hello. There seems to be something going on every minute. There was a wonderful presentation on the La Salette Lay Associate vocation in Moreno Valley, California on October 26. There were ten people in attendance, listening to a wonderful teaching from Father Ronald Beauchemin, MS. There was Father Maurice Cardinal, MS for whom so many of us have been praying. He is a dauntless, zealous missionary who touches everyone's heart. Father Maurice is the designated spiritual guide of the new community of Lay Associates growing from a seed in the far western reaches of the United States. Father Beauchemin was the featured speaker. After the presentation there was an open forum and the discussion was very animated. During this moment, Father Maurice helped illumine the minds and hearts of the participants with his spiritual counsel. This was a very uplifting experience for everyone. xxxxx/////xxxxx\\\\\xxxxx/////xxxxx\\\\\xxxxx
The day before this event, in the same parish, the La Salette Lay Associate delegate to the First International Gathering of Salettinian Laity gave a prolonged presentation on the guidance that had been offered by the "Professors" at the Gathering. This was none other than Isabel M. Dion, the Hula Dancer who was Father Adilson's favorite dance partner during the recreations known as "Soirees". Her presentation was to the parish staff which is composed of the employees of the parish. It includes everyone from the Coordinators of Faith Formation to the Parish Secretary. about 15 people all in all. Despite the fact that this is a parish where La Salette Missionaries provide the spiritual guidance, this presentation was very enlightening for this group of people. Of course, the climax of the morning was the famous Power Point Show, The Bridge vs The Fence by Father Adilson, translated into English.. That was in the morning. That very evening, Isabel repeated the teaching to the small team of teachers who guide the very young children through the Liturgy of the Word for children at the 8:15 AM Mass on every Sunday. This too was a very deeply moving experience for the members of this team.
